Well, it's a 2015 release. And the beer aged quite great. Classic roasted malts and yeast, think of Rochefort 12. Sweet with loads of chocolate. Fat and boozy. Just great. I have another one, will keep it for 8 more years )

Rob B. remember picking these up? VIP treats! Not the richest quad, but I’m not sure that’s a bad thing. Dry and dangerously sippable.

Bärnsten till mörkt brun i färgen. Doft med inslag av skumbanan. Elegant bubbel. Kraftig smak med sötma, skummande jästighet, brödigt och lite blommigt. Riktig munkpangare i belgisk stil.

Plum, candy nose, note of caramel after the first sip. Heavy, good amount of sweet, well rounded. Alcohol covered up well

Rich, boozy sweet honey hints with a gentle autumnal nutty background. Incredibly moreish. Excellent.

One sip and I felt like I was back in Belgium! Huge funky and malty flavours evoking notes of raisin, candied fruits, and Christmas pudding. Super soft, smooth, slick, sticky and sweet. The warming is slow and gradual, beautiful slow burner.
